Supplies & Maintenance

Have you decided to recycle your used toner cartridges in an eco-friendly way? If so, you might be wondering how to do it. Unlike water bottles or soda cans, toner cartridges require special handling as they are electronic waste. However, the good news is that recycling e-waste, including toner cartridges, has become more accessible in recent years thanks to the growing awareness of environmental issues. 

In the last few years, we at STPT have witnessed our customers show increased interest in sustainable printer options. Every year, millions of cartridges end up in landfills, releasing harmful heavy metals into the air and water. That's why individuals, companies, and organizations need to make recycling a part of their mission.  

Everything is chugging along nicely: your service technician just repaired your printer’s belt for you, which was failing and causing printer slowdowns. 

Now, you’re ready to get your printer up and running again so you can stay on top of important business orders.

Except, only two weeks later, your printer is stalled again. 

As more and more projects pile up, you have to wait for your service technician to come back out to your location and replace two additional parts. 

Now, you’re several days behind schedule, and your clients are not happy. Your employees are finding it difficult to complete work tasks, and everyone is falling behind. 

Unfortunately, scenarios like this one sometimes happen when you’re on a basic preventative maintenance plan. 

If your service tech had just checked those other parts when they repaired the printer belt, you could have avoided this problem.

No one likes having to replace toner cartridges.

Toner can be messy, expensive, and replacing a cartridge can be time consuming if you’re not a seasoned pro. If you’re having to spend hours of time replacing toner cartridges, then you’re losing out on valuable time and money that could be spent on important work tasks.

Besides, there’s so much information out there about toner that it’s difficult to figure out what kind of toner to buy or how often to replace your toner cartridge after installation.

As Xerox Diamond Authorized Solution Partners, our print experts at STPT are well-versed in printer toner and other print supplies.

Sustainability is the name of the game in 2023.

A recent study found that consumers will pay up to 20% extra for greener products, and companies who are environmentally conscious tend to perform better financially. 

As the importance of sustainability grows for consumers, companies need to embrace the change by incorporating sustainable development practices into their business models.

This means taking real steps towards environmentally friendly practices, like green printing, paperless office policies, and recycling office supplies. 

With over 30 years of experience, our team members at STPT are experts in all things print. From finding print services to sourcing eco print materials and buying eco-friendly laser printers, we want to use our expertise to help your company achieve its sustainability goals.
